1 Date Prepared: 3/8/05 Page: 1 SECTION 1. CHEMICAL PRODUCT AND COMPANY IDENTIFICATION Material Identity Product Name: Everfix Epoxy Stick Product Numbers: Product Use: Epoxy Resin and Hardener Company Emergency Telephone Numbers: Fibre Glass-Evercoat CHEMTREC: a Division of Illinois Tool Works Inc. CANUTEC: Cornell Road Cincinnati, Ohio USA Phone: Prepared By: Safety Department SECTION 2. COMPOSITION / INFORMATION ON INGREDIENTS Ingredient(s) CAS Number EINECS Number % (by weight) Glass Enamel Bisphenol A/ N/L Epichlorohydrin Resin Polymercaptan Proprietary Proprietary n-aminoethylpiperazine Aluminum Oxide Quartz (Crystalline Silica) * The ingredients and percentages listed are based on the resin and hardener mixture. OSHA Regulatory Status: This material is classified as hazardous under OSHA regulations. SECTION 3. HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION ***EMERGENCY OVERVIEW*** WARNING! MAY CAUSE ALLERGIC SKIN REACTION OR SENSITIZATION. CAUSES EYE, SKIN, NOSE AND THROAT IRRITATION. HARMFUL IF SWALLOWED. Potential Health Effects Acute Effects (Short Term): Eye: Contact with liquid or vapor may result in irritation, redness, tearing, and blurred vision. Skin: May cause skin irritation. Prolonged or repeated contact may cause allergic skin reaction. Symptoms may include redness, burning, drying and cracking of skin, and skin burns. Swallowing: Ingestion of this material may cause gastrointestinal irritation, nausea, diarrhea, and vomiting. Aspiration of this material into the lungs due to vomiting may produce chemical pneumonitis which can be fatal.

2 Date Prepared: 3/8/05 Page: 2 Inhalation: Excessive inhalation of vapors may cause nasal and respiratory irritation, acute nervous system depression, fatigue, weakness, nausea, headache, and dizziness. Symptoms usually occur at air concentrations higher than the recommended exposure limits (See Section 8). Chronic Effects of Overexposure (Long Term): Epoxy Resin: Prolonged or repeated contact may cause allergic skin reaction. Aluminum Oxide: The substance may have effects on the central nervous system. Crystalline Silica: Crystalline silica is considered to be hazardous by inhalation, and is a potential human carcinogen (IARC Group 1). The risk depends on the duration and level of exposure to dust from sanding surfaces or mist from spray applications. Crystalline silica may also produce silicosis, which is a non-cancerous lung disease. Cancer Information: The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has classified crystalline silica as a group 1 carcinogen (sufficient evidence of carcinogenicity in humans). Other Health Effects: None known. Primary Route(s) of Entry: Inhalation, Skin contact, Eye contact, Ingestion, Skin absorption. SECTION 4. FIRST AID MEASURES Eyes: Skin: Swallowing: Inhalation: Flush eyes gently with water for at least 15 minutes. Seek immediate medical attention. Remove contaminated clothing. Wash exposed area with soap and water. If symptoms persist, seek medical attention. Launder clothing before reuse. Consult a physician or poison control center immediately. DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. If individual is drowsy or unconscious, do not give anything by mouth; place individual on the left side with the head down. If possible, do not leave individual unattended. If symptoms develop, immediately move individual away from exposure and into fresh air. Seek immediate medical attention; keep person warm and quiet. If person is not breathing, begin artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, oxygen may be benificial if administered by trained personnel.

FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES Flash Point: >500 ºF (>260 ºC) Explosive Limit: Lower: N/A Upper: N/A Autoignition Temperature: N/E OSHA Flammability Class: Combustible Liquid Class IIIB Hazardous Products of Combustion: May form toxic and corrosive gases: carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, chlorine, sulfur oxide and nitrogen oxide and various hydrocarbons. Fire and Explosion Hazards: Material may burn although not readily ignitable. Extinguishing Media: Regular foam, carbon dioxide, dry chemical. Fire Fighting Instructions: Water may be used to keep fire-exposed containers cool until fire is out. Wear a self-contained breathing apparatus NIOSH approved with a full facepiece operated in the positive pressure demand mode with appropriate turn-out gear and chemical resistant personal protective equipment. NFPA Rating: Health - 1, Flammability - 1, Reactivity - 0 SECTION 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES In Case of Spill: Absorb spillage on inert material and discard in suitable container. SECTION 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE Handling: All hazard precautions given in the data sheet must be observed. Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Wash thoroughly after handling. Use only with adequate ventilation. Do not breathe vapors or spray mist. Do not take internally. Close container after each use. Keep out of reach of children. Storage: Store material in a cool, well-ventilated area. For maximum product quality, avoid prolonged storage at temperatures above 75 F (25 C). Do not use or store near heat, sparks, or open flame. Keep container tightly closed. Avoid contact with incompatible materials. SECTION 8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION Eye Protection: Skin Protection: Chemical splash goggles in compliance with OSHA regulations are recommended. Protective gloves and proper clothing should be worn to prevent skin contact. Gloves should be made of neoprene or natural rubber. A barrier cream may be used for additional skin protection. To prevent repeated or prolonged skin contact, wear impervious clothing and boots.

4 Date Prepared: 3/8/05 Page: 4 Respiratory Protection: None required at normal handling temperatures and conditions. Use a NIOSH approved respirator designed to remove particulate matter and organic solvent vapors if necessary. Engineering Controls: Provide sufficient mechanical (general and/or local exhaust) ventilation to maintain exposure below acceptable limits. Explosion-proof ventilation system is acceptable.
